MEPs background checks
Rangers, I'm getting 11X Opt.40 on my contract and I wanna know if they do a complete background check(health, criminal, etc) at MEPS for enlisting into the Regiment.

Asthma is an automatic disqualifier. Consider plan B.

Re: MEPs background checks
I know and I'm not gonna quit, if that's what you mean by plan B. This is something I really wanna do. But will they check at MEPS?

Re: MEPs background checks
Integrity is something they test for in all of the elite selection processes, if you are given to cheating or taking short cuts, you will be outed. This is your first test.
By 'plan B' I mean consider a career where hiding the potential of your sudden onset of difficult breathing will not threaten the lives of your comrades.

Re: MEPs background checks
I wouldn't think about cheating in the selection, If I got caught i'd feel dumb. I'd just do what they tell me. But at MEPs would they check my records for asthma?

Re: MEPs background checks
Your question was answered!! I understand that you don't like the answer but that's life. If you are trying to hide a condition that you know disqualifies you, then that is the same as lying and it puts others at risk.

Bases on your flippant attitude and complete disrespect for the RANGERS on this site I am guessing you would not make it long at Battalion anyway.

Re: MEPs background checks
Go ahead and lie at MEPS that way you can get sent home before you even get to basic training for having an asthma attack. And when that happens come back and post on this topic so that we can all laugh at you.

For some reason, this seemed to be appropriate.

Re: MEPs background checks
No I don't need one. I'm able to do phyiscal stuff with no problems with breathing. In fact when I was younger I used an inhaler and i ran for boxing, that actually was harder on my lungs.ZoneIV wrote: Are you using an inhaler?

You speak/type as if we were your guest on this site. You answer questions like you are talking to your friends. I for one am not your friend and I am sure that the other people on the site would appreciate it if you would address them properly as Ranger before replying.
I have read your posts and it seems like you have nothing but ailments to keep you from your "dream". You are seriously worried about diarrhea? Are you fucking kidding me?!?! Suck it the fuck up!
